Season premiere: After a twisted plan left the life of his girlfriend Elena linked to that of his best friend Bonnie (Kat Graham), Damon (Ian Somerhalder) is forced to navigate his new reality without the love of his life. A newly empowered Bonnie has decided that she will be Damon’s moral compass and keeps a close eye on him as he, in turn, cautiously keeps tabs on Alaric (Matt Davis), following the loss of his fiancée Jo. Meanwhile, as he waits for Caroline (Candice King) to sort out her emotions, Stefan (Paul Wesley) takes an active role in protecting the town from Lily (guest star Annie Wersching) and her family of Heretics, who have wasted no time wreaking havoc in Mystic Falls. Elsewhere, Enzo (Michael Malarkey) struggles to find his place in Lily’s new life, and is quickly forced to decide where his true loyalties lie. Finally, with the stakes higher than ever, Matt (Zach Roerig), who has recently completed his deputy training program, teams up with Stefan and Caroline to put a stop to the Heretics, but an unexpected turn of events leaves one of them in a dangerous position.

Comments Off on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES: Ian Somerhalder and Julie Plec Tease ‘Christmas Through Your Eyes’

On tonight’s brand new episode of THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, it’s Christmas in Mystic Falls, and, well, things are going down. And while things are dramatic in the present, the show has found a way to make the hour a little bit lighter: viewers will see flashbacks of happier years when the friends were together (and able to actually be in Mystic Falls).

To get a little bit more info about what will be going down, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES executive producer Julie Plec and series star Ian Somerhalder (Damon) shared a little preview of “Christmas Through Your Eyes” with reporters…

Comments Off on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES: Candice Accola Teases Friendsgiving, What’s Next with Stefan, and More

The holidays on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES will be a little bit different for the residents of Mystic Falls this year since the town is now protected from allowing anyone with supernatural abilities inside.

“Caroline has a very difficult time not being able to go home,” Candice Accola (Caroline) acknowledged to reporters on set. “What was so great about Klaus and Caroline’s relationship was it was the first time Caroline thought there was anything outside of Mystic Falls. There was a whole world out there. Before that, she probably would have just been a housewife, sipping on her chardonnay and reminiscing about being homecoming queen if she would have never turned into a vampire and met all of these people. So, Mystic Falls is still very, very close to her heart, and it’s very difficult for her to not go home. We will see that a little bit in this Friendsgiving episode, but more as we go into the holiday episode, which [is] really, really special this year. We just shot those recently…she misses home.”

It’s Thanksgiving time on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, and as Caroline and Elena host a Friendsgiving at their dorm, Damon, Stefan, and Alaric go on a road trip to do some investigating into the Gemini Coven (with the hopes it will lead them to some clues about Bonnie). And back in the 1994 world, Kai is not happy that Bonnie was able to get rid of her powers, seemingly trapping them there forever.

Comments Off on THE VAMPIRE DIARIES: Julie Plec on the ‘Delena Rain Kiss’ and Teases ‘Fade Into You’

Over the past few years, some THE VAMPIRE DIARIES fans have taken to Twitter to express their desire for a “Delena rain kiss.” (Delena = the Damon + Elena coupling, in case you aren’t familiar with ‘shipper shorthand.) And while some fans may have thought it wouldn’t happen, in a recent episode when Damon reflected on his time with Elena, fans got the kiss they had requested for so long.

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES co-creator Julie Plec sat down with reporters, and talked about honoring the fans with that kiss (and how it came to be in that episode), and explained why she loves this Thursday’s brand new episode, “Fade Into You” so much…

The second wave of TEEN CHOICE AWARDS nominations have been announced, and shows like GLEE, THE VAMPIRE DIARIES, SLEEPY HOLLOW, and SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE are among the latest to garner nominations.

Most of the categories have five nominees, but due to ties, the number can vary. (And, as a reminder, each category can only have two nominees per show, so only the top two vote-getters from any particular series moved forward.)
